Military Boats CIC at Torquay Printed From: BMPT Forum Category: Boats (In alphabetical order) Forum Name: Motor Torpedo Boats Forum Description: Discussion on Motor Torpedo Boats URL: http://www.bmpt.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=991 Printed Date: 26 March 2026 at 1:34pm Topic: Military Boats CIC at Torquay Posted By: johnk Subject: Military Boats CIC at Torquay Date Posted: 23 June 2015 at 3:59pm Hi there, Just browsing the net and had a look at the Military boats experience web-site, and see announced there that unfortunately, the base at Torquay established last year, has had to be abandoned due to dispute with the council, as per the piece, very sorry of course to read this, all vessels have had to return to Watchet...most unfortunate as I say, albeit Watchet is very nice, visited couple of years ago, Torquay of course one of the major tourist centres....cost much to move of course, but also read Paul and the team awarded Transport Trust award for restoration of MTB219, well done and much deserved to save this historic vessel, onwards to 2017 and the anniversary of the Channel Dash... Johnk
